Pedestrian, 36, killed on Ogeechee Road

Savannah-Chatham's Major Accident Investigation Team was called Wednesday night to investigate a deadly pedestrian accident.

Just after 11 p.m., David Williams, 36, was believed to be walking home from work on Ogeechee Road when he was struck by a Chevrolet Monte Carlo traveling southbound on Ogeechee Road, according to police spokeswoman Gena Bilbo.

The car, driven by Clarence Parker, struck Williams as he was walking in the right lane of the roadway, Bilbo said.

Michael Alcott, traveling south bound on Ogeechee Road in a Pontiac Grand Am, could not see the pedestrian lying in the roadway and struck him as well, according to police reports. Williams was transported to Memorial University Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.
